This is an interesting call for youth performers and groups in Singapore:
Singapore Street Festival (SSF) celebrates its 20th Anniversary with a new theme: NXT – A Virtual Music Event. SSF is going digital this year! Also, we are back to venues where SSF first started 20 years ago, at the Somerset Belt.
SSF is a non-profit social and community project that was founded in 2002. This yearly festival has been in partnership with statutory agencies and strong supporters to provide the youth in Singapore with a platform to showcase their talents, skills and capabilities in the performing arts and visual arts.
In this 20th Anniversary celebration, SSF in NXT – A Virtual Music Event has commissioned 3 youth composers (LEE Jin Jun, Syafiqah ADHA, Terrence WONG) and garnered a panel of 9 professional mentors to help nurture youths in the area of music.
